Descripción
This document presents the highlights of an impact assessment conducted by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture, the Tanzania Vulnerability Assessment Committee, the Ministry of Agriculture’s Crop and Livestock Departments, and the World Food Programme, to understand the impact of El Niño on agricultural production and livelihoods in the United Republic of Tanzania. The comprehensive assessment approach included an innovative combination of four components: maize yield forecasts using a NASA Harvest model; a household survey that reached 1 200 households across the eight regions conducted in May 2024; an agriculture sector damage and loss assessment; and a seed assessment conducted through interviews with key informants in the seed sector.
